摘要: Three experiments explored reaction times and the emergence of consistent responding during tests for equivalence following prerequisite conditional discrimination training establishment three 3-member classes. Using a simultaneous testing protocol linear series training, Experiment 1 investigated differential to baseline test trials, consistency emergent performances. Only 10 subjects responded in accord with stimulus equivalence, 2 other patterns. Reaction trials were longer than there was tendency lower be associated testing, whether or not equivalence. as function repeated testing. One subject from previous experiment participated eight replications materials two second set materials. Neither these produced even after symmetry performances nearly perfect. However, both sets materials, gradually reduced became different pattern “equivalence” To examine initially are directly relevant and, under favorable conditions, opportunity respond comparison stimuli restricted s 3. The results showed that time constriction, none otherwise is, one-to-many training. A problem-solving interpretation formation is suggested.
